For your own knowledge, poll the class to gauge student understanding of environmental sustainability. Sample questions may be:

    • What is sustainability?
    • Why is environmental sustainability important?
    • What are some ways that you can life an environmentally sustainable lifestyle? 

 

  • You may find that many of them don’t have a comprehensive grasp of the issue and may carry with them misconceptions. Don’t worry. In the engagement step, students will have the opportunity to gain more background knowledge and to have their misconceptions addressed.
